hey guys,

Came across this event in another forum, & looks interesting so thought I'd put it up here incase people were interested:

Time Attack Battle 2010 - Barbagallo - October 29th 2010

When and Where

Barbagallo Raceway – Wanneroo - Friday October 29th. Scrutineering will start at 5pm, the first cars will be on the track at 6pm and all lapping will be completed by 10:00pm. For full details of the timetable, you can review the Supplementary Regulations.

What

The format will be pretty much the same as the last event. You will have many opportunities put in timed laps of the track, and your fastest lap will determine your overall place and your place in your class. There will be 9 classes and each class winner will be rewarded with a trophy. Besides a trophy per class, there will be trophies for the top 3 overall and also an award for the ‘Driver of the Day’. The same ‘big screen’ results display will be back, including live SMS messages of your times.

Further details: http://raventechracing.com/index.htm?page=...mp;sub=29102010

"Just to clarify spectators are free, full regulations are on the RR website under events for those who'd like to enter and restore some pride to the Nissan badge, food is being provided for competitors so spectators will have to eat grass, roadkill ala wanneroo or used tires."

Hi All,

Raventech Racing has just joined this forum to try to provide input to discussions about this event. We will try to answer questions posted in this thread, or you can email/pm us.

They obviously haven't advertised well as this is the first I've heard of it :down:

We are trying very hard to get the word out about our events, but it is proving difficult. If you have any suggestions on how to promote the event please let me know.

Regards,

Hi Michael,

I did notice there is a link on the WASCC Site, but I definately agree that the Car Club Forums are often the best way to get the message out to a large audience. There are a number of serious time-attack cars tucked away around Perth, and I'd hate for people not to see them cause they didn't know about it. Have you contacted the guys at No Limits, SCRA etc ?

Cheers

Paul

Paul,

We have got this on quite a few forums, but we are trying to get it up on more everyday. We need help from the people in the community (like yourself) to spread the word as most forums won't let us start a thread without paying big $$$'s to become a site sponsor. We should have posters and flyers down at Wheels World by the end of the day.

We would love to see all those hidden away time-attack cars come out to play :( . The Skyline community will be well represented by several of our competitors.

I don't think that the guys from No Limits would be too excited about helping to promote this event, as I'm sure this will be seen as competition for them (althought it isn't).

Michael

Hi Michael,

I'm starting to spread the word to a number of people who are likely to be interested, and will also have it sent out to the SAUWA Members in our email updates. We don't want events like these to die through a lack of visibility, as WA could definately do to have more motorsport events.

Cheers

Paul

All car club forums such as this, WRX Car Club, HSV Car Club, FPV Car Club, MX5 Car Club etc along with flyers at shops like Wheels World, such as Tech 9 Tyres, etc together with Performance Work shops like X Speed, Garage 101, Fabcar Racing etc would be a great for extra visibility to your audience.

I agree that we need to make these sorts of events occur more often here in Perth, as compared to what happens in Melbourne, we don't have anywhere near the level of events like these, even though our performance car scene is just as large, if not larger.

Good luck and hope to see you there at the event.

thinking of entering this, anyone else going in it?

seems to be the bulk of this events forum is just cruises, how many actually get to the track ?

There is plenty of people who do track stuff, including myself, but most of those events have dedicated forums, i.e. IPRWA, SCRAWA, No Limits etc.

I know a number of people entering the event, should be a good night.

OK fair enough...No Limits is one of the best entry level track nights, I've sung its praises on here, only missed a couple of nights in the last 2 years & reckon I've seen a few Skylines at best apart the usual suspects, done Shannons, Fabcar, Transcore etc and only a couple of Skylines and not from here..

IPRWA & SCRAWA look like they are for striped out race cars ?

Am I missing out on other events that everyone on here are doing ??

By the way I'll see you at the "Time Attack" just entered,, street class AWD

I created this thread, in order to assist people getting into Motorsport, any input you can provide is welcome.

Only event you didn't list was the Speed Event Series.

Will try and catchup with you at Time Attack, best of luck. Are Gav and Chris also entered in the Street AWD Class ?

I hope their not, I would've thought both of them would be running semi's, so not sure if thats "Limited" or "Unlimited"

Yeah havn't done the Sped Event Series yet..

I'll keep a look out for you, you'll be in a GTS? what colour?

You're right, they will be running R-spec, so that will push them into "Unlimited" by the look of the Sup Regs.

Nah, my car won't be there, it's off getting a cage installed, and is race only anyway. Post a pic of your car and I'll come find you.

If you mean Gavin Beer and Chris Reynolds, then no, they are not entered (yet). I am still hoping that they will. If they were to enter in their cars in the same spec as the April Time Attack then they would both be in "Limited AWD". Running R-spec tyres, by itself, doesn't push you into the "Unlimited" classes.

It's ok to enter in 'race only' cars. Provided you're not running full slicks, pretty much anything goes in the "Unlimited" classes :P

Thanks for the clarifications :)

I'd enter myself, but I don't believe my cage will be completed in time for the event.

sent Gav a text, he's entering today and will remind Chris, hope their running semi's, don't want either of them in my class .

here's a couple of pics. looks like this except she's wearing R34 GTR rims, and sporting a TO4Z not the big Turbonetics

    • So, version 4 intake is on its way I was looking at these a while ago but at around $200 or more it was a little pricey for something that might not work, but, I had it in my watch list, but, I got a message saying it was on special, and I had a code thingie to use, it eventually came in at $120 delivered, so BAM, BUY NOW.....LOL I'll need to have a look when it arrives but I feel it will "look" better than what I currently have, as it comes with a PCV fitting, so I will be able to get rid of the alloy pipe that goes to the throttle body with the PCV fitting  Well, that's what the voices in my head are telling me  Oh, and this happened today Yeap, it was a Trojan, and it was cheap, so I headed back to the hardware store and actually spent a little bit more on a heavy duty,  one that was actually recommended by a plumber mate, a Cyclone one with a fibreglass handle that is actually rated for clay The broken shovel will eventually be "modified" into a short handle shovel
    • When you pulled it off, there is no signs of blown head gasket? Is it possible you have some other issues going on? Possible cracked blocked? Or do you think it's straight up lifting the head? Did you check what the head was torqued to before pulling it down (To see if possibly they're stretching, or starting to break threads out etc)?
    • Seems like a decent result for a modded JZX110. They are bulky in comparison to the 100 and 90 models (which I'd prefer myself) but they are getting very few and far between here in JP these days. Thanks for the detailed review and the import process into the UK. I also have a car which I'm hoping to export from Japan at some stage so it's good to know if someone from the UK was interested in it. By the way the corrosion underneath is par for the course for cars which were located in/near the mountains or along the Japan sea coastline. They get huge amounts of snow every winter and the sodium chloride is used on the roads. Many cars have some kind of rubber like treatment underneath but they tend to limit it to the wheel arches underbody and fuel tank. Suspension arms and sub-frames will have similar corrosion to your JZX110 which is a common sight. See it all the time and car dealers here generally don't even mention it unless asked.
    • If the sound goes away when you clutch in, the 1.5/2 way diffs are just shit, and you are a normal person. The diff is likely "fine" but driving at anything under 30kmh is a violent horrible experience. It would be exaggerated with solid diff bushings and subframe bushings if you have those.
